Cthulhu Awakens

“That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange eons even death may die.”
…Castro from Hp Lovecraft’s “Call of Cthulhu”

One of the cool things about Cthulhu is LoveCraft left it’s description open enough for each reader to picture what they personally found the most terrifying. Which has lead to a very wide variety of depictions and interpretations of his likeness by fans over the years.

This is my own envisioning of the evil alien god. I wanted an image that was both hideous and menacing looking. I also wanted to make him look somewhat decomposed looking, because of his death-like slumber. But also because of the scene where the doors to his city of R'lyeh open, the smell is described as the stench of a thousand crypts.
